Also disclosed is a method for producing the softening agent composition which includes producing a water-repellent polymer by polymerizing, in the presence of the silicone polymer, a monomer that constitutes the water-repellent polymer. The water-repellent polymer may be at least one selected from the group consisting of fluorine-containing polymers and non-fluorine-containing polymers. Also disclosed is a method for treating a substrate with the softening agent composition and a substrate treated with the softening agent composition.

The present invention relates to a composite sheet comprising a woven fabric consisting of liquid crystal polyester fiber in which one side or both sides of the woven fabric is coated with a coating material comprising a thermoplastic resin, wherein a tensile strength of the composite sheet in a warp direction of the woven fabric is 300 N/cm or more, and wherein a ratio of a mass of the thermoplastic resin to a mass of the woven fabric is 5 to 25% by mass.

A polymerizable composition, polymer capsules and a fabric softener composition are provided. The fabric softener composition includes polymer capsules in which cationic groups are introduced on the surfaces thereof, so that early release of a fragrance can be suppressed and aromas can be generated depending on rupture of a shell material of the polymer capsules by light friction at certain times. In addition, the polymer capsules have high adhesion to fibers and are not attached to fibers during washing to minimize the discharged fragrance, so that sufficient aromas can be provided even if a small amount of fragrance is used.

A frictional power transmission belt includes a compression rubber layer having a frictional power transmission surface that is covered with a fabric. The compression rubber layer includes an inner rubber layer in contact with the fabric and an outer rubber layer on an outer peripheral side of the inner rubber layer. The inner rubber layer is formed of a cured product of a rubber composition including a surfactant as a hydrophilic plasticizer, an unsaturated carboxylic acid metal salt, and polyolefin particles.

A composition for hydrophilic treatment of fibrous substrates that is washfast in terms of softness contains derivatives of amino-functional organopolysiloxanes containing siloxane units of a general formula (I), optionally siloxane units of a general formula (II), siloxane units of general formula (III), and siloxane units of a general formula (IV). Impurities of octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (D4 cyclics), decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (D5 cyclics) and dodecamethylcyclohexasiloxane (D6 cyclics) are present in proportions of less than 0.1% by weight in each case and after a storage time of 20 days at a temperature of 50° C. the proportions of D4 cyclics, representative of D4, D5 and D6, remain below 0.1% by weight in each case, based in each case on the total weight of the derivatives of amino-functional organopolysiloxanes.

The invention relates to the field involving the softening or lubricating of natural, synthetic or mixed textile fibres, as well as keratin fibres. The invention provides a softening composition, the rheology of which is controlled by means of a particular thickening agent. The invention also relates to the thickening agent, which is made from multiple isocyanate compounds.

Block-modified polysiloxanes and compositions comprising the block-modified polysiloxanes are useful in the field of textile finishing. Emulsions comprising the compositions have a very small and narrowly distributed particle size which increases penetration, and provide good softening properties coupled with good hydrophilicity.

This invention relates to rubber reinforcing material with reduced weight, a method for preparing the same, and a tire including the same. According to this invention, there is provided a rubber reinforcing material that has a thin thickness and light weight, and yet has excellent durability. The reinforcing material not only reduces the weight of a tire, but also enables realization of improved rolling resistance.

A water-repellent fabric includes a base cloth and a water-repellent resin. The water-repellent resin is disposed on the base cloth, in which a method of fabricating the water-repellent resin includes the following steps. A first thermal process is performed to mix a polyol, a cross-linking agent, and a choline to form a first mixture, in which a reaction temperature of the first thermal process is between 90° C. and 120° C. A second thermal process is performed to mix the first mixture and a water repellent to form the water-repellent resin, in which the water repellent includes a hydroxyl group, an amino group, or combinations thereof, and a reaction temperature of the second thermal process is between 120° C. and 150° C.
